NEW ORLEANS - Ted Ginn Jr. has been ruled out of Monday night's game with a knee injury - which could open up more opportunity for New Orleans Saints rookie receiver Tre'Quan Smith or fourth-year pro Cameron Meredith.
The severity of Ginn's injury is unknown. He played through a knee injury in recent weeks despite being limited in some practices, but then he didn't practice at all this week. The Saints have a bye in Week 6, which gives him extra time to heal.
Ginn, who is used often as a deep threat, has 12 catches for 135 yards and two touchdowns this season.
